It is the result of fine-tuning the model "facebook/wav2vec2-large-xlsr-53" with around 944 hours of Spanish data gathered or developed by the [CIEMPIESS-UNAM Project](https://huggingface.co./ciempiess) since 2012. Most of the data is available at the the CIEMPIESS-UNAM Project homepage http://www.ciempiess.org/. The rest can be found in public repositories such as [LDC](https://www.ldc.upenn.edu/) or [OpenSLR](https://openslr.org/) The specific list of corpora used to fine-tune the model is: - [CIEMPIESS-LIGHT (18h25m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2017S23) - [CIEMPIESS-BALANCE (18h20m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2018S11) - [CIEMPIESS-FEM (13h54m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2019S07) - [CHM150 (1h38m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2016S04) - [TEDX_SPANISH (24h29m)](https://openslr.org/67/) - [LIBRIVOX_SPANISH (73h01m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2020S01) - [WIKIPEDIA_SPANISH (25h37m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2021S07) - [VOXFORGE_SPANISH (49h42m)](http://www.voxforge.org/es) - [MOZILLA COMMON VOICE 10.0 (320h22m)](https://commonvoice.mozilla.org/es) - [HEROICO (16h33m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2006S37) - [LATINO-40 (6h48m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC95S28) - [CALLHOME_SPANISH (13h22m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC96S35) - [HUB4NE_SPANISH (31h41m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC98S74) - [FISHER_SPANISH (127h22m)](https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu/LDC2010S01) - [Chilean Spanish speech data set (7h08m)](https://openslr.org/71/) - [Colombian Spanish speech data set (7h34m)](https://openslr.org/72/) - [Peruvian Spanish speech data set (9h13m)](https://openslr.org/73/) - [Argentinian Spanish speech data set (8h01m)](https://openslr.org/61/) - [Puerto Rico Spanish speech data set (1h00m)](https://openslr.org/74/) - [MediaSpeech Spanish (10h00m)](https://openslr.org/108/) - [DIMEX100-LIGHT (6h09m)](https://turing.iimas.unam.mx/~luis/DIME/CORPUS-DIMEX.html) - [DIMEX100-NIÑOS (08h09m)](https://turing.iimas.unam.mx/~luis/DIME/CORPUS-DIMEX.html) - [GOLEM-UNIVERSUM (00h10m)](https://turing.iimas.unam.mx/~luis/DIME/CORPUS-DIMEX.html) - [GLISSANDO (6h40m)](https://glissando.labfon.uned.es/es) - TELE_con_CIENCIA (28h16m) **Unplished Material** - UNSHAREABLE MATERIAL (118h22m) **Not available for sharing** The fine-tuning process was perform during November (2022) in the servers of the Language and Voice Lab (https://lvl.ru.is/) at Reykjavík University (Iceland) by Carlos Daniel Hernández Mena. # Evaluation ```python import torch from transformers import Wav2Vec2Processor from transformers import Wav2Vec2ForCTC #Load the processor and model.
